For Windows users who is interested I have just added the Cygwin Windows port of wget to my LRP page. http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/msensney/WGET.EXE Download this file, add it somewhere in your path and run it from a DOS Window. This program is a "Swiss Army Knife" web file grabber. Try the help command to get an idea of what it can do. wget --help ; massive help listing For the purpose of just fetching a file from a web site, these 2 forms of the command will work just fine. wget -nd http://file.url ; fetch a file to your current directory wget -O pathname http://file.url ; fetch a file and rename "pathname" Enjoy.
